For Some family especially if u marry our sisters from the east....its ur duty ooo...cos its a like they did u a great favour by allowing u marry their daughter

...infact as u guys are starting the union...if u are fairly financially comfortable .[/b]they will shock u and ur wife with one or two siblings that you will be taking care of steadily....
[b]
If u are very very very financially okay
..haaaaaaa!!....u will build house for them in the village oooo, replace ur father inlaw's bicycle with a car...
Bye regular holanldis for the mother inlaw...(Igbo mother inlaws don't joke with holandis ooo) she won't even be far from ur crib..men still have some shame so u won't see the father inlaw much...u will pay school fees of siblings oooo...

#no offence to Igbos, just stating experience from my elder brother's union....ndo!!!....emabinu!!


But all in all, Igbos are not bad pple..the wife sabi cook anytime I crayfish go my bro side....and they don't cheat like our ijebu afonja women once they are married...I stand to be corrected though

c u oo.a Lady wu will cheat will cheat.it in dia making regardless of their color or race.

Calm down and read my comment again. (same advise I gave to someone earlier)
Madam, English no hard wo. This is what you wrote. "Your wife's family becomes your family after marriage,so you should take care of them as you would your own family."
So, you are saying in essence that, once I marry a daughter from a family, the welfare of the family becomes my responsibility? Is that not what you said? That's why I said, I don't remember marrying the family, I only married their daughter, and she is my responsibility, but that won't deter me from assisting where I can, but they are never my responsibility. My own family that sacrificed a lot are my responsibility. I see no reason why I should buy DSTV subscription and sort.

That's it.. In fact, That equality of the family is what vex me pass. Ehn.. My family that made me a man is never equal to another family, in fact, they'll not give me their daughter if I was let to roam about without guidance, counselling, sacrifice and all. I'll help if I'm able to, but it's never a responsibility. If the table were to be turned around, she'll say another thing..

I'm a confirm Yoruba ooo....I have been had the chance to be in a couple of s/west state...unless u don't know ijebu women or u don't wanna admit....their in-marriage infidelity is grade 1.....

I think our women from the east have a lot of curses and spiritual implications attached to their root in the vilallge....making some of them stay out of adultery...I've a heard a couple of local principality & powers related curse attached to adultery gist from ishaan tribe in edo, anambra etc

"Your family" in this context means your extended family(parents,siblings,uncles...) do you foot all their bills?

A friend of mine recently lamented badly how he has been subjected to a mere source of income for his wife's family. Apart from buying things for them during festive periods, he is still been called on every now and then to take care of minor issues that should ordinarily be taken care of the family. There are grown up men in his wife's family but this young man will still be called on to foot medical bills of his father-in-law, support house rent and other funny things such as paying for DSTV subscription. Whenever he complained to the wife about these, she would tell him if members of her family could help, they would have done that. The eldest male in the family who is almost 42 still calls my friend for financial assistance!

Now, my question is: Does it mean if my pal's wife didn't marry him, the entire family would have been wiped out by financial problems? I personally feel his unnecessary kindness towards the family is becoming a huge burden in life. I believe he is been used.

I believe this is a common phenomenon in some families which makes it look as if it is the responsibility of a man to cater for his wife's family no matter how comfortable or not the man may be.


that is the consequences of showing off to your in-law. your moniker depict the size of your ego.

Two things are involved, is either your friend is a weakling n lacks confidence or he is carried away by the lust for pussy.what nonsense!,this your friend I guess is the type that would allow his wife to send away all his relations n turn around to be a Dundee n be dying in silent shame. you'd better help him develop some courage n confidence to confront n put a stop to that nonsense or NA una sabi.
